Chicago News: Senator John
Sherman is pretty cunning politi-
can, but he slips up once in awhile.
He took a walk around Springfield
one day last week. a buxom young
lady, holding a badly in her arms,
was leaning over the gate in front
of large, fine-looking residence.
What a lovely child" exclaimed
Senator Sherman, "pray, may /
kiss it?'
Certainly" said the Buxom
young lady, and the eminent
Ohioan gave the baby smack
that made it put out its under lip
and wrinkle its red face all up for
a howl.
"That's as fine a child as | ever
saw, madam I'll warrant you
that it's the picture of its father !"
said the senator. SIN fact, the
child interests me SO much that I'd
like to have its father call on me
at the hotel" With this he handed
out card.
"Sakes alive, sir !" cried tho
buxom young lady, sit hain't got

THE HANGING OF MRS. SURRATT
Mrs. Uancock's Memoirs.

The attempt to make Gen. Han
cock in any way responsible for the
trial and execution Of Mrs. Surratt
is as unfair a charge as any man
has ever been called upon to meet,
and he never cared to discuss it. so
obvious to all intelligent and fair
minded people did he consider its
injustice. The troops { 100000 men
were under his entire control, in
cluding those that guarded the pris-
oners. All orders cume to him
from the secretary of war, and
through him to Gen. Hartranft,
who was the governor Of the mill
tary prison and who had immedi-
ate charge Of the prisoners and
gave the verbal order for the exc
cution. Gen. Hancock never un-
derstood why he should be held re-
sponsible for that unhappy execu-
tion-as cruel a spectacle as ever
stained the escutcheon of nation.
President Johnson was wholly re-
sponsible for it. Not once but many
times did my husband urge upon
the president unanswerable reasons
for granting a pardon. He would
reply that he could not, that the
execution was demanded by many
prominent men of his party, and a
portion of his cabinet was as un-
compromising as the other. The
question has many times been asked
and remained unanswered: "Why
did General Hancock consider it
necessary to be present at the exc
cution?" For the important reason
that Miss Surratt had gone to the
president at the last moment by his
advice to plead for pardon for
her mother, and it was hoped up
to the last moment that reprieve
would come. This fact necessitated
his presence at the arsenal to re-
ceivc it from the couriers, stationed
at intervals along the line from the
White House to the arsenal, in or
der that if the president relented
and granted rcprieve not mo-
ment would be lost in reaching him.
10 hold Gen. Hancock responsible
for the death of Mrs. Surratt was
absurd. His connection with the
affair was purely military and offi-
cial, and such personal interference
as it was proper for him to under
take was all in the direction of a
reprieve. To the court that tried
Mrs. Surratt belongs the odium,
and the president, secretary of war,
and Judge acknowledgement may
all be criticized for the part they
took in carrying out the decree OF
the commission.

WON ON TWO f0URS.
A Great Game of Bluff Between 6
Miner and a Gambler.

Jeff Hawkins of Chicago, one of
the most prominent gamblers in the
western country and well known to
all the sporting men in Lafayette,
thus describes a game Of poker to
which he was an eye witness:
at was in Park City, Utah, in
1875, when the mining boom in the
Mormon territory was at its height.
One night l dropped into Howard's
place to see friend, and while
standing at the bar my attention
was called to a remote corner of
the room by a crowd of men who
seemed to be very much interested
in something there. The bartender
told me that Digger Mike and
Frank Payton, a miner and gam
bier, were playing poker, and know
ing both men well, / concluded
that I'd watch them a few minutes.
$50 | walked over to the corner
and took up position where |
could watch the players. Digger
had five or six stacks Of checks and
big pile of bags containing gold
dust, in all about $4,000 in front of
him, while Payton had about $1,000.
Both men played cautiously for
while until there was a Jackpot,
which Digger opened with bag
of gold dust, Payton stayed and
raised him $3.50, which the Digger
saw, and went $500 Tin gold dust)
better Payton just called this, and
then skinned his hand and called
for one card. Digger dealt it to
him, and then threw $500 worth of
his dust into the pot, remarking:
i don't want any"
"Payton skinned his hand again,
and, after going through the usual
motions of looking at his antagonist
for few minutes, he saw the 500
and went it $500 harder. Digger
was more prompt in raising this
four bags of dust, and Payton even
more promptly saw the raise and
went it $1,000 better. Neither man
was the least bit nervous, accord
ing to all outward signs, though
each had all his earthly possessions
in front of him and in the pot.
They continued to raise each other
as they made bet after bet, until
the Digger shouted for a show
down, saying he couldn't call an
other cent.
Both hands went down on the
board at the same moment, and
then Payton reached over and be-
gan to scoop in the gold dust and
checks. He had pair of fours,
while the Digger had been blutiing
on a keller. i didn't think you
had nerve enough to follow me,
Frank was all he said as he got
up from the table TO leave the place
to go back to the diggings to toi!
for more gold dust. The sequel of
the game is interesting. Payton
left the saloon, too, disposing of
his winnings to his satisfaction, and
that was the last time he was seen.
until his body was picked up Il
week or two later in raviue about
a mile from Howard's. His skull
was crushed and his money all
gone, showing that he had fallen r
victim to somebody's cupidity. His
murderer was never discovered
